This adorable pattern by Japanese designer Kyoko Maruoka (Gera!) is comprised of a series of individual charts. In one, children from all over the world are holding hands. In subsequent charts, each child is pictured with a row of their favorite animals. Mix and match the charts to create pencil cases, small bags, or frame the finished piece to hang in a child's room. You can also combine them with children from the second series of Gera's International Kids.
This design is available as a printed pattern. Get up and stitching quickly with the coordinating thread pack which comes complete with 17 full skeins of DMC cotton embroidery floss.
